Let’s say I was going to count to three, and haul and hit you in the stomach as hard as I could. What would you do?” I told him, “I’d tighten up my tummy.” He put my hand on my stomach and said, “You see how hard that is? That’s where you sing from. That’s where the power comes from. When you know you’re going to scream, you lay your head back, which spreads your vocal cords real wide, and when the scream comes out, it barely nicks your vocal cords. You don’t want to do too much of that, because there’s soft, tender meat down there.”
